“So, how long have you lived in Incheon?”

    “Two days.”

    “That’s it?”

    “Yup.”

    Zhou Mi sat back in his chair, “Where did you live before here?”

    “Seoul.” Kyuhyun replied coldly while looking out the window.

    Zhou Mi pouted, “You haven’t touched your coffee since you got here, it’s probably cold by now.”

    Kyuhyun looked back at the taller male and sighed. He stood up from the chair, making it squeak across the floor. Pulling out his wallet he set down a ten dollar bill on the table. He bowed to the man sitting across from him, “Thank you for coffee.”

    Kyuhyun turned to leave when Zhou Mi stood up and grabbed his wrist, “Where are you going?”

    “Away from here.” Kyuhyun threw his wrist out of Zhou Mi’s reach.

    “But wait! I wanted to get to know you more!”

    “Just leave me alone.”

    “Kyuhyun, wait! I’m sorry! Look, I think you’re a cool guy and I want to get to know you! Please just give me another chance!”

    Kyuhyun stopped walking upon hearing those words.

    Kyuhyun quickly reacted and grabbed Sungmin’s arm, “Wait, Sungmin, please, I’m sorry! I don’t mean to be a creep. Look, I like you, I think you’re a cool guy! I want to get to know you more! Please, just give me one last chance!”

    He slowly turned around and walked back toward Zhou Mi with a deep look on his face. Zhou Mi backed away slightly and Kyuhyun got in his face.

    “Don’t you get it?” Kyuhyun growled, “I could give you a million chances in the world and not a single one would have me crawling back to you.”

    Kyuhyun his heel and left the cafe, flinging the door open and slamming it behind him. Zhou Mi stood in the middle of the cafe, shocked and confused. He liked the other and wanted to get to know him, even if that meant taking chances.

    “Donghae, I need to talk to you.”

    “Me too!”

    The two best friends approached each other with two very different expressions.

    “You first.” They said simultaneously.

    “I’ll go.” Donghae smiled. He took a deep breath, “Eunhyuk and I are back together!”

    “Really?” Sungmin’s face turned happy, “That’s great!”

    “Yeah! After you left, we couldn’t help but talk to each other, you know with him tied to a chair and all and things just sorta happened and we’re back together again!”

    Sungmin smiled at his friends happiness.

    “Alright, your turn.”

    Sungmin’s face dropped again, “Oh… Well uh, N-Naomi and I… She invited me over to rehearse lines for the play and… S-She sorta… We kinda…”

    “Oh my god.” Donghae smiled widely, “You two kissed!?”

    Sungmin sighed, “Yes, we did.”

    “That’s great Sungmin!” Donghae cheered, “Looks like things are going your way!”

    Sungmin looked away from his friend, “I pulled away and told her it was wrong.”

    “Huh?”

    “I don’t know Donghae, something just didn’t feel right about it.” Sungmin replied hugging his arms close to his chest.

    Donghae shook his head, “I told you, you were a fool.”    

“What?” Sungmin asked.

“Kyuhyun is the reason, Sungmin. The reason you feel that way around Naomi is because of Kyuhyun.” Donghae replied, “You’ve got to do something.”

    “I’m trying, okay?” He sighed, “I’m trying my hardest to forget but I just… I can’t seem to get him out of my mind.”

    “Then don’t forget.” Donghae said.

    “Huh?”

    “Find him.”
